Luo Jinyou: "......"

He felt his social life had also come to an end at this moment.

Exerting the last bit of his strength, Luo Jinyou weakly protested again.

"Change positions......"

Ying Duo looked at the troublesome "casualty" in his arms; although he found it bothersome, he still went along with it.

On the third try, Ying Duo set Luo Jinyou back on the ground, then, like shouldering a sack, he flung him onto his shoulder.

Luo Jinyou's abdomen pressed against Ying Duo's shoulder; the already injured internal organs suffered secondary compression, the internal injury from earlier battle was instantly triggered, his throat felt sweet, and he almost spat out a mouthful of old blood.

He hung like a dead fish on Ying Duo's shoulder, swaying with each step, his soul about to be shaken out, completely lacking any strength to resist again.

Unfortunately, Qi Hengyu completely failed to notice Luo Jinyou's oddness, thinking he was just shy, while the other two over there weren't paying attention at all.

Thus, Ying Duo carried Luo Jinyou, whose internal injuries had worsened to the point he could no longer speak and even began rolling his eyes, walking steadily toward the medical point.

Qi Hengyu watched the two's "inseparable" (?) backs recede, stroking his chin.

"I didn't expect their relationship to be quite good."

Meng Kexin remained silent, watching Ying Duo's silhouette carrying Luo Jinyou, her eyes dim, unaware of what she was thinking.

Chen Mo Zhi beside her hesitated, glancing at her arm and the abrasions on her leg.

He only knows poison, not medicine.

He lowered his gaze, remaining silent.

————————————————

The flashback ended, Luo Jinyou lay on the hospital bed, feeling his wounds begin to throb faintly again.

He looked at Ying Duo still resembling a soul‑reaping ghost beside him, drew a deep sigh, then closed his eyes.

Li Ya teacher seemed to have finally finished organizing the equipment, walked over, and liberated Luo Jinyou from Ying Duo, the "Poisonous Mushroom King".

"Ying Duo classmate, the casualty needs rest; you should go back first......"

Before she finished speaking, Ying Duo glanced at Luo Jinyou, then at his own system where the favorability remained unmoved, as if making some decision.

He stood up and said to Luo Jinyou:

"Rest well."

Then, under Luo Jinyou's wary gaze, he silently took out the red apple he had just put away from his backpack, and solemnly placed it back on the empty bedside table.

After doing all that, he turned and left the infirmary, that Ying Guang Lu hair flashing past the doorway.

Luo Jinyou looked at the lone red apple lying exactly in the center of the bedside table, as if it were some precious tribute, his expression blank.

What is this? A gift to raise favorability?

Forget it, no need at all!

He feared that if it increased further, next time he wouldn't just be lying in the infirmary but would be sent straight to the ICU.

————————————

Ying Duo stepped out of the infirmary threshold and immediately began rushing nonstop toward the location where his next target might refresh.

After the entrance examination, everyone's scores and rankings were announced; only Luo Jinyou was hospitalized due to severe injury, while everyone else was basically enjoying the rare weekend break after the exam.

Yang Yixie pulled up his phone memo, opened a small window, and the list showed several familiar names, with brief notes beside them.

Shen Zexi (Lv. 19)-Lightning Chains Mage, title "Child of Fate", likely has related plot to advance.

Qi Hengyu (Lv. 18)-Martial Artist, Warrior/Tank, quite blast‑resistant, strong defense, can be used as front‑line.

Luo Jinyou (Lv. 17)-Key focus! Pure shield support, practically a player's ideal teammate, and the game configuration AI is also very smart.

Chen Mo Zhi (level unknown, give it a try when chance arises) plays poison; unsure if he can be a healer daddy, but even if not a teammate, he might still be useful later, so getting close is fine.

Currently, Ying Duo has listed these several NPCs as conquest targets.

Once he raises their favorability, he can go grind levels in the wild.

The NPCs' levels also rise quickly; he originally thought his own level could crush them, but upon closer inspection, he found their levels had also risen a bit.

Indeed, they are all plot NPCs, their levels scaling with the player's progress.

Hmm, mid lane Shen Zexi versus Qi Hengyu, he himself playing ADC, while also binding support Luo Jinyou, and throwing Chen Mo Zhi into the jungle— they could jump straight into a game.

Once the target was clear, action began immediately.

Shen Zexi had just stepped out of the main gate of the magnificent teaching building when the afternoon sun was somewhat glaring.

This entrance examination, as expected, he still won, but unexpectedly, he wasn't actually first place......

When the Security Team won, Shen Zexi wasn't the least bit surprised, but he felt delighted to be runner‑up.

Feeling the warm sunlight on his body, he lazily squinted, in a great mood, pondering whether to go outside the campus for a stroll.

Suddenly, out of the corner of his eye he caught a figure bringing a green whirlwind, whoosh— a sudden precise stop right in front of him.

Shen Zexi instinctively wanted to retreat; Ying Duo obviously came to confront him, and anything related to Ying Duo is never good— he didn't want his rare Sunday to go to waste like that.

But by the time he thought of running, it was already too late; the next second Shen Zexi felt his arms sink.

A thick stack of books, heavy and giving off an ink smell, was shoved into his arms by Ying Duo without hesitation.

The stack of books was piled extremely high; though the weight wasn't an issue for him, because Ying Duo had just been sprinting, the top few books began to wobble, threatening to fall.

He stared up in astonishment; the large stack of books blocked his view, forcing him to tilt his head and look at Ying Duo in confusion.

"What is this......?"

After Ying Duo completed the "delivery" action, he did not leave immediately.

He just stood there silently, his eyes fixed on Shen Zexi without blinking, making Shen Zexi feel a sudden hair‑raising sensation in his heart.

Five full seconds passed, and the progress bar indicating Shen Zexi's favor level was like a frozen lake, not even a ripple stirred.

He said nothing more, not even a basic greeting, and simply and decisively turned, the Ying Guang Lu hair tips drawing a brief flash of light across the air.

"Why didn't the favor increase? Did I give the wrong book?"

No way? They almost took one of every type; there can't be a single one that Shen Zexi likes, right?

Shen Zexi, clutching this sudden heap of "knowledge," tried to call out to the green figure already fading at the edge of their sight, but the other's speed was simply too fast.

They had just taken a step forward when the stack of books in their hand, which hadn't been properly piled, began to shake violently; they could only hurriedly stop and steady the wobbling stack.
